As a young child, I didn’t understand many of the things our culture perpetuated: war, the destruction of nature, poverty, racism, sexism, and a general unhappiness that lurked within the general public and inside myself. For a while, I believed I could find the answers outside of myself. It wasn’t until my early twenties that I discovered the answers were only found by looking inward. I came to see that the very dysfunction within my personal consciousness was also the collective inculturation within all of us who live in this global hierarchal culture. I saw that who we think we are is a role we have been taught to play within our cultural framework. I saw that the cultural mythos that conditions us to believe that we are separate from Nature and the Universe is not truth. I saw that the countless indigenous cultures had very different ways of being on the planet. I saw that our culture was a hellish culture that has perpetuated violence upon each other and the planet. I saw that many indigenous cultures lived in a more heavenly interconnected state. And I saw that one can wake up altogether from any cultural dream state.

After a profound transpersonal experience, I began to pierce into my enculturated ego and see and release the illusion of self. Letting go of the dysfunction led me into a deep quiet and an immeasurable presence with Wholeness. In Wholeness, I couldn’t help but live deeply connected, authentic, and in kindness and love. I was also free of living in ignorance. I had woken up from the enculturated dream that had been taught into me since the day I was conceived.

I could now see that rather than living in anxiety and sorrow, living in wholeness and love is possible for all of us. The journey to self-discovery wasn’t easy. It took me on the heroic journey of penetrating the illusion of self and entering Wholeness. Looking back, it would have been helpful to have had guidance from someone to help me navigate the journey of self-transcendence.

My purpose is to see you completely and listen to you in full presence. During our journey together, I will be your guide. As we explore what is troubling you, if you are open to it and work to continuously go further, to question your thinking, beliefs, and who you are, you will discover the dysfunctional nature of enculturated thought and dive into the quiet depths of presence. The goal is that you will awaken into health and your innate sense of wisdom and wonder. But, most importantly, you will awaken into truth.

I often bring meditation and a dialogic approach into each session, both of which bring awareness to noticing thoughts and beliefs and how they impact how we see and experience life.

I would be honored to work with you.
